Accelerate your business' growth with flexible asset and equipment finance, matched to your needs. Secure funding to acquire essential tools and technology to help you stay ahead of the competition.
Check your eligibility
Asset and equipment finance falls under two categories, hard and soft assets. We explain the differences below:
Hard assets are high-value items, often types of machinery and vehicles required to keep your business moving. These are long-term assets that can retain their value for many years.
Soft assets are lower-value items that help staff perform their jobs and provide a productive working environment, such as furniture, IT and security equipment, telecoms and sector-specific tools.
Asset finance is a type of financing that enables businesses to acquire the equipment, machinery and other assets they need to operate, without having to pay the full purchase price upfront.
